Balloons in World War II: Japan’s Fu-Gos as Secret Weapons – Knowledge

White balloons in the sky over the USA, unknown flying objects, pieces of debris that pose riddles. Balloons have been alarming the US government not just since the alleged Chinese spy balloon flew over and was shot down off the coast of South Carolina in early February. Almost 80 years ago, the jet stream transported strange flying objects from Asia to North America. Remembering the First Intercontinental Weapons Story – at the same time the first attacks on the US mainland – may have contributed to the reaction and public outrage in the United States to the current balloon incident.
